RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

Are things going well in EM?

Were you with OS last rotation?

How was that?

It wasn't great there either.

The second-year residents are so scary.

So they're the problem in OS.

In OB-GYN,
the first-years are the problem.

Why? What's wrong with them?

They're all

a bit unwell.

Breathe.

One has body temperature
that's way too low.

She has hypothermia for sure.

Ma'am, please push.

I think I'm going to die.

You're not there yet. Push.

Then shouldn't they crank up
the heat in the labor room?

Good.

-No way.
-Push one more time.

There's another one with…

Okay, ma'am!

-…a high fever.
-Breathe in!

There you go! Very good!

One, two, three!

One more time!

One, two, three!

Ma'am, push!

And there's one whose BP is way too high.
She has high blood pressure.

One more time.

Good! That's awesome!

-That was so good!
-And the last one…

Her vitals can't be measured.

She can't be diagnosed.

Doctor, it hurts so much.

Ma'am, breathe.

Ma'am, are you seeing white?

No.

Then we're not there yet.

Call me when you see white.

It's been confirmed she's not human.

What on earth is she saying?

My next rotation
is OB-GYN next month. I'm screwed.

But in some ways, they seem okay.

What? You said they were all unwell.

The residents are weird,

but when you see babies being born,

it's really nice.

The mothers and patients are all nice.

It's hard work,

but it's nice.

-What in the world?
-You scared me.

The alarm went off
because you were saying nonsense.

My medication alarm.

I have high blood pressure too.
It's time for my meds.

Let's go.

All right.

They're interns, right?

Who else are they? Fellows?

Right.

Doesn't the intern Tak Gi-on

seem interested in OB-GYN?

You're already preparing
to recruit interns?

What do you mean "already"?
It's July. We're late.

Our current first-years
didn't turn out well at all.

If they're duds next year too,
we're all screwed.

You better get it together.

Right.

Yes, ma'am.

Let's go.

Yes, ma'am.

RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

EPISODE 7

I got chewed out by Prof. Seo
for not suturing well.

She said to watch you and practice.

-Nam-kyung.
-What?

You too, right?

No, I wasn't scolded.

It was just a bit of nagging.

You always pretended to slack off.

You must've practiced a lot.

I didn't.

For abdominal fascia sutures,

Prof. Kong says
to suture tightly to prevent hernias.

But Prof. Seo will yell at you
for suturing too tightly,

because it restricts blood flow.

But what's the difference?

She did it Prof. Seo's way.

Really?

You didn't know?

No. I just did whatever they'd tell me.

Is she a genius?

Genius, my foot.

They say if you're not smart,
you'll end up toiling.

While toiling away,
she probably just got lucky.

Yi-young is smart.

You said she was
the top student in high school.

I had the best grades.

She did the best on mock exams.

We were rivals for three years.

None of that matters.

Being the top student
in high school is useless.

I'm broke and hungry now.

I'm a total bum.

You bought another bag?

This?

I took out a 12-month installment plan.

This was the last one
in the country in this color.

So what could I do?

I had to buy it.

Isn't it pretty?

Well…

it's not my taste.

It's like a bag for older women.

You don't know what's trendy.

Don't you know
what the "old-money look" is?

-Where would you even take that?
-Plenty of places.

To and from work.

The hospital. My home.

She has a lot to go to.

She has to go on dates
and see her boyfriend.

I told you several times we broke up.

You said it was just a fight.

I'm off.

We broke up! It's over!

Even if he calls again,
I won't ever pick up.

Even if he breaks down
and begs me to meet,

there's nothing I can do
since I won't ever see him.

This again?

Just tell me if it was a fight
or a breakup once you decide.

I told you it's been decided.

Geez, I said it's really over.

Doctor, the ER patient's results
are ready.

Gi-dong, call me
when you're not mad anymore.

I'll be waiting.

It's the ER.

I'm off.

My phone!

That's what I said.

Hello.

Hey, it's…

Dr. Pyo Nam-kyung.

Where are you going?

The ER. I'm going to see
a patient with our intern.

The one on his GYN rotation…

Our intern…

Dr. Tak Gi-on. Right?

Yes.

Go on.

Have a good day.

Oh, right.

I heard the interns on OB-GYN rotation

say that you're their favorite.

Me?

Especially that doctor…

You know.

Who? I don't know.

The intern who was with us in April.

They said you were so friendly
and such a kind teacher.

That's what I heard.

I didn't do much though.

That's great. I was worried
no one would apply to OB-GYN next year,

but we can just count on Dr. Pyo.

Me?

A lot of interns choose their departments
based on the senior residents.

And without junior residents,
the seniors suffer the most.

So try your best to persuade the interns.

Yes, ma'am. I will.

Good luck.

Thank you.

I'll get going.

I hope she can just bring Dr. Tak over.

But are you really sure
that intern's good though?

I told you he is.

He's perceptive and skilled.

He's the perfect fit for OB-GYN.

It's not cholangitis, so don't worry.

Judging from the cough I have,
it's just a cold.

I know the doctors here. Don't worry.

-May I come in?
-Yes.

The doctor's here.

I'll call you back. Bye.

Are you Ms. Lee Ik-sun?

Yes.

We're going to run an EKG.

Sorry?

I didn't do this last time.

Why am I doing it this time?

It seems metastasis is causing
your current symptoms.

There may be a heart issue,
so they want us to check.

Metastasis?

Yes.

Then, that means…

You're saying it's cancer?

Have your cough and chest tightness
been worse recently?

Yes, coughing…

I had a cough.

My chest did seem a little tight too.

And you've had major surgery before?

Yes, that's right.

I'm sure you had a hard time then as well.

Is it really bad?

Sorry, excuse me.

Hi. I'm not done yet.

I said don't worry.
I'll call you right after I'm done.

Okay, bye.

I'm finally off my meds now,
and I thought I was getting better.

But this is so unfair.

What's going on?

Hey, come on in.

What, are you really sick?

Is something wrong?

Well…

Are the results in?

Could I see the CT results?

Well…

Dr. Tak, what are you doing here?

Dr. Pyo.

I was going to do an EKG,

but the patient became bit startled.

Ms. Lee Ik-sun?

Yes.

Ms. Lee Ik-sun, age 89?

Eighty…

Which department are you with?

GS? GI?

OB-GYN.

I'm very sorry.

I think our intern has the wrong patient.

I'm really sorry.

Isn't checking patient identity
the most basic thing?

It's a mistake you can't make
no matter how busy you are.

I'm sorry. It won't happen again.

Goodbye.

-I'm sorry.
-I'm sorry.

Why did you do that? Geez, come on.

I'm sorry.

Captain Ahn.

Your juniors have become
way too undisciplined.

I apologize, Major.

I was so shocked. My nose is running.

I need a tissue.

Wait…

Are you going to do the dove thing?

I'm going to blow my nose, okay?
It's running.

I was so surprised.

Also, I've become old.

My fingers are too stiff
to do the dove now.

But you work out a lot.

I do.

That's why I'm hanging on like this.

Goodness.

What about you?

You look like you don't work out at all.

What's wrong with how I look?

I look totally fine.

I'm like Gen Z in mind and body.

That's so embarrassing. Fine.

Then I'll treat you
to dinner tonight as the elder.

What do you want, Gen Z? Pasta?

No. I saw a place on my way here.
Brick-oven pizza.

I need to eat rice.

Koreans need rice.

There's a great
beef bone soup place nearby.

We can go there.

Hey, what kind of Gen Z eats
beef bone soup? Have some pasta.

-Hey, Gen Z.
-Just a moment, ma'am.

Yes, I'll be right there.

Hey, Gen Z. Pasta.

Kids these days like beef bone soup.

How have you become so old already?

-Good luck with treatment. See you later.
-Okay.

Who wouldn't be scared
if you suddenly say it's metastasized?

You should have double-checked
before saying that.

I'm sorry.

Things got busy all of a sudden,
and I lost focus.

From now on,
always check the patient's name and age.

Ask for their identification too, okay?

Yes. I'm sorry.

For goodness' sake.

And thank you.

The other first-year resident
always gets mad.

They tell me to get lost.

Who would say that?

Dr. Oh.

But you explained what I did wrong

and how I should fix it.

It's so nice.

You can't just say anything
no matter how angry you are.

Gosh, I can't even speak casually.

Even if you're a junior,
I have to be respectful.

Yes, this is
Jongno Yulje Medical Center ER.

All beds are full right now.
Please try another hospital.

-We've been waiting forever.
-Sorry, we'll be with you soon.

When will that be?

I came to the ER for a consult.

Yes, I'll be right there.

Hello, I was called to look at a mass
on a CT for abdominal pain.

-Please go over there to E.
-Okay.

The CT shows a 3 cm ovarian cyst.

Yes, that was already there.

Abdominal pain isn't common
for something that small.

Just a moment.

-Does that hurt?
-No, not there.

You're sure the pain isn't down here?

If it's from the cyst,
it should hurt here.

Then how about here?

Doctor? Knock-knock.

I'm busy right now.

Doctor, I looked at the patient.

The pain isn't where the cyst is.

She has upper abdominal pain
and indigestion.

So why did you call us?

Before, she said it hurt all over.

You see, not all abdominal pain
in women is related to OB-GYN.

We couldn't confirm cholecystitis
from the CT scan.

We thought it could've been
ovarian cyst torsion, so we called OB-GYN.

I also called Gastroenterology.

Well, torsion from a 3 cm cyst

is not very common.

I guess that's true.

But it doesn't hurt to check.

Last week,
we were called for an appendicitis.

That patient had a history
of ovarian surgery.

The week before that,
it was for gastritis.

She had severe menstrual cramps.

All she needed were painkillers,
but you still called.

You said to call you promptly last time.

Sorry?

Last week,
you scolded us for calling too late

with all the OB-GYN patients waiting.

The week before that,
you said we couldn't diagnose

since we had no OB-GYN knowledge.

You told us to call
instead of wasting time.

That's not what we meant.

It's just we've received
especially a lot of calls lately

when it's not OB-GYN-related.

Then should we not call you?

Really?

No.

See?

I'll call again if there's a patient.

Thanks.

Dr. Park Moo-kang from Pediatrics?
It's Kim Sa-bi from OB-GYN.

It's about Ms. Yoo Hong-seon.

Is the baby coming? Should I come now?

No. Progress is slow,
so I think the baby will come tomorrow.

Really?

So can I go eat then? Can I?

I'm really going to go.

I think that's for you to decide.

Tomorrow morning,
I'll call you again with an update.

Okay, bye.

Doctor, Ms. Yoo's baby is coming!

-Please come now!
-What?

You said it wasn't coming today.

The baby's coming now!
Its heart rate is falling. Hurry!

You said I could eat.

I'm coming.

Geez, OB!

You did so well.

DELIVERY ROOM

Very good.

Doctor, is the baby okay?
Is it breathing well?

Yes, you said the baby's heart rate
was falling, but it's perfectly fine.

Doctor,

if the baby's okay,
then why are you angry?

Isn't that a good thing?

Why is he mad?

No, I wasn't angry…

Yes, this is Dr. Park from Pediatrics.

Ms. Park Sol's baby in the NICU?
I'll be right there. I'm sorry.

I mean, how many times are you going
to call Anesthesiology today?

For local anesthesia,
we have to use a thick needle,

so you may feel some discomfort.

Okay.

You've heard of "pain-free heaven," right?

You'll be there soon. Just hold on.

It won't hurt much
once the epidural goes in.

Please relax.

Still, isn't calling
every 30 minutes excessive?

Can't you do it all at once?
This my fifth time here today.

I'm sorry.

I'm serious. A liver transplant,
peritonitis, and cerebral hemorrhage.

Three surgeries
opened at the same time.

Each operating room is in chaos.

Us too.

The mothers screamed in the delivery room
that they were in pain every 30 minutes.

Their husbands complained.

It was total chaos.

That is OB's problem.

We're not some rapid-response unit.

Excuse me, Doctor!

Doctor!

Doctor!

The epidural from an hour ago didn't work.
She needs it again. Now!

Can you

keep the cancer a secret?

If my mother knows it's cancer,
she'll never have the surgery.

But now,

I think it would be better
for the treatment if she knew.

Well…

This year, both her friend and my aunt

passed away
after a tough battle with cancer.

After that,

she said even surgery
wouldn't help with cancer

and that she'd never spend time
suffering in a hospital.

This time,

I barely managed to bring her here
by telling her it was a cyst.

To do this surgery, this is the only way.

Afterwards, I'll take
full responsibility and tell her.

The mung bean pancake lady
at Pyeongnam Market.

Sir?

Just now… Don't you know?

She says money should be spent

on kids who have full lives ahead of them,
not old people like her.

So she donates
100 million won yearly to Pediatrics.

She was on You Quiz on the Block too.

So that's why the hospital director
came to say hello?

Yeah.

She does so many good things.

But… Wait.

Think of this
as a small thank you for that,

and let's be careful about what we say.

I know it's a bit of a hassle.

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

Is everyone getting off work?
How about dinner?

-I have plans.
-Sounds good, sir.

It's all right. Relax.
Don't worry about it.

Okay.

-Let's go.
-Okay.

Enjoy your dinner.

Thank you.

You too, Professor.

I will.

Fresh ribs.

Marinated ribs.

Whole pork belly!

Eat up.

It was a pain arranging a night
when you all were free.

-Thank you!
-Thank you!

Dr. Ku, you're close
with Dr. Park Jun-suk from EM, right?

Not particularly.

Can't you have a word with him?

EM's been stressing me out so much
that I might go bald.

I mean,

if a female patient's stomach hurts,
they call us without checking properly.

Why call OB-GYN for cholecystitis?

Maybe they needed you to check.

It's not that.
They're like, "We called you."

"Someone hurry and take this patient."

Geez. That's why people mock them
and say they're a call center.

Scold Pediatrics too.

Why would I do that?

They get mad if I call them
either too soon or too late.

They get really upset
over even tiny things.

Pediatrics is about as generous
as the size of their patients.

There's a lot who aren't like that.

There can't be a lot.

Their department barely has anyone.

Don't forget about Anesthesiology.

They stand near the patient's head
and act superior.

They're so arrogant.

They think they own the OR.

What about OB-GYN?

We always thoughtlessly
push our way into the OR.

We use babies as threats
to boss people around.

That's why everyone mocks us
as the "thugs of Yulje."

People don't like us either.

And they don't need anything from us.

If we fight, it only hurts us
since we always need help.

So try to get along, okay?

Tonight, let's just eat
and not talk about work.

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

I'm so full.

Gosh, I'm stuffed!

-Thank you for the meal.
-Thank you for the meal.

See you tomorrow.

-Good night!
-See you tomorrow!

-Good night.
-Take care, sir.

-See you.
-Bye.

Bye.

Weren't you going back to work?

No, I'm going home.

But why did you go that way?

What?

I got lost and thought home was that way.

Were you worried
the others would get the wrong idea?

They'd just assume
we're going the same way.

They're not as nosy as you think.

You're the one who told me
to not say anything.

I did?

But why take this street
and not the main one?

This is the fastest way.

But it's so dark.

And empty.

It seems a bit dangerous to walk alone.

I mean, what if you
come across some weirdo?

I'll punch them in the face.

And smack them in the ear.

So you are a thug.

You really are.

Did you box during high school
or something?

What do you mean?

I heard you're a good puncher.

What are you talking about?

-Is it that good?
-Yeah.

This place has the best crabs.

I'll buy much more next time.

I went too late,
and they only had two left.

I need to replenish my stamina.

When I had the egg retrieval last time,
I realized how weak I was.

Getting the shots
while having a cold was really tough.

This time, I'll eat well,
get healthier, and then--

You said that was the last time.

You said you were done.

When did I say that?

I said I'd see how many embryos grow
and only do that much.

Having zero embryos
wasn't part of the plan.

It doesn't count.

But you cried so much.

I did? When? No, I didn't.

I think it'll go well this time.

I can feel it.

They're home already?

Clear the table!

The crab fiend's here. Oh, no!

-I'm home.
-Me too.

You came home together.

Yes, we had dinner together.

Not just us two.
With the other first-years too.

We didn't say anything.

We were curious
if you had something good without us.

We had barbecue.

I'll go wash up.

-Okay.
-All right.

Hey, Joo-young.

What is this?

What do you mean?

That's all you're eating?

What?

It's seaweed.

This is all I need to eat all of my rice.

You need to eat better.

Seung-won, can you wake me up tomorrow?

Okay, Yi-young. Good night.

What am I doing?

She didn't catch us.

How did you know about the crabs?

Didn't you see the soy sauce drop
by the seaweed?

It's lighter than brewed soy sauce
and more aromatic than soup soy sauce.

Then what else could it be?
It's marinated raw crabs.

My brother bought it for your sister.

It's from her favorite place.

He must've stood in line for it.

That's why I'm only eating the legs.

Is it even worth eating that?

I was full anyway. Just a taste…

I'm just having a taste.

Why are you up though?

I had some papers to read.

Why are you reading
so many of those boring things?

You stayed up reading
the last two nights too.

I napped in the resident's lounge.

I bet there's nothing in there.

Stop eating. I'll buy you some next time.

Really?

Just me without Joo-young?

Okay.

When?

How about this Friday?

Okay.

Nice.

No, I can't.

Why not?

I have somewhere to go. I forgot.

Damn it.

You go on leave tomorrow. Right, Dr. Ku?

Was it for three days?

Yes, Professor.

You should've taken more days off.

You've been so busy this whole time.

And you must've had
a hard time with that paper.

Sorry? What do you mean?

I mean get some rest.

I'll make sure no one calls you.

Okay. Thank you.

Do-won, are you really off
starting tomorrow?

Yes, Professor.

Then, can you help me out
a lot today before you go?

Sure, Professor.

Then, could you review my paper,
the summer symposium presentation,

and Prof. Im's retirement ceremony plans?

I just can't trust the juniors with them.

Yes, of course.

And I have two surgeries today.

I'll be assisting you on both.

I swear I won't call you on your vacation.

-Thanks.
-Sure.

Is she telling you
to go on vacation or not?

I heard our chief resident's
going on holiday.

Yes, Professor.

Right. Are you busy today?

No, I'm not.

-No, right?
-No.

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Did Prof. Jo scold you a lot
over the surgery records?

Yes.

My goodness. Look.

If it's benign, always add
the uterus weight in the surgery record.

And when making the diagram,

mark the direction the uterus
was removed in with an arrow.

And remind him one more time tonight
about tomorrow's first surgery.

There's a frozen section
for tomorrow's last surgery,

so remember to book with Pathology.

Okay, I will.

Are you coming in to assist tomorrow?

No, I won't be here tomorrow.
I'll be on leave.

Oh, right!

Where are you going?

Taiwan. I'm hopping on a plane.

What's wrong with this consent form?

Oh, that?

That's for the pancake lady.
We made the font larger.

The Pyeongnam Market
mung bean pancake lady?

The font on the form was too small.

It'd be hard for her to read.

Her son asked us to keep it a secret.

She doesn't know she has cancer.

I also checked to make sure
cancer wasn't mentioned.

I mean, I won't let it slip.

But I'm worried about the intern.

He's quite the troublemaker.

Dr. Tak Gi-on, right? How is he doing?

I'm teaching him well.

He really trusts and relies on me.

Dr. Pyo?

Yes?

I think you should come and look.

Just a moment.

Okay.

A moment, please?

Dr. Tak?

Are you drawing stars on her belly?
You can't tape her like that.

Sorry?

Then, how…

Put a long strip over the affected area

from top to bottom
to help the skin close better.

I'm sorry.

I was worried
water would get in while showering.

I mean, you're struggling to remove
the Hemovac and PICC,

so I'm doing them all for you.

That's more work for me.

You should at least figure out
how to tape on your own.

I'm sorry.

Could you do better next time?

Okay.

-Ma'am?
-Yes?

I'm afraid we'll need to reapply the tape.

Again?

Yes.

Be careful to not let
water in when showering.

On your next outpatient visit,

we'll check how they're healing
and redress them.

Okay.

Hello.

You said you're leaving
early tomorrow morning,

so we've prepared everything
for an early discharge.

Thank you.

But, Professor, is this okay?

I feel like
they might fall off right away.

Don't worry, ma'am. I taped them well.

Well, that male doctor
did it very thoroughly earlier.

But the retaping she did
doesn't feel as secure.

Then, let me take a look at it.

Yes, it's fine.

They've been taped well.

Really?

That's incredible.

I wonder how our male doctor did it
if it was better than this.

He did it so thoroughly
that even a drop of water wouldn't get in.

I don't know why she did it again.

No, it wasn't like that--

It's all right. Don't worry.

There's no need to be humble right now.

Sir?

Yeah.

Thank you.

I'm so curious.

Yi-young, what's up?

You scared me.

I'm withdrawing some cash. You?

I had a savings plan.

-Savings?
-Yeah.

It matured, so I'm closing it.

Matured?

Some people really do pull that off.

You could suddenly need a lot of cash.

You could move or go travel,

so we need to save.

I know that. I just can't do it.

You don't have a savings plan?

I've never tried.

Some people really do live recklessly.

But I do one thing similar to that.

What?

The lottery.

There's a prime spot near my house.

Eight winners came from there.

-We've got a patient.
-We've got a patient.

-Yes, Doctor.
-Yes.

I'll be right there.

-I'm on my way!
-No!

Ten centimeters to the left
and five to the right would do it.

Doctor?

This isn't a parking lot.

If you made a little space,
you could fit one more in here.

There's no one to care for it.

Shoving in a bassinet
won't solve anything.

We can't shove the baby back in,
so we have to push this in.

We're completely full right now.

Remember the three sets
of twins yesterday?

I remember. At two, five,
and one in the morning.

That's right.

That's three deliveries for OB.

For us, it's six more, okay?

It's not that we don't want to take it.
We just can't.

Goodness, are you hungry?

Wait just a second.

How precious.

We're short-staffed.

Don't you watch the news?

Pediatrics has no applicants
or first-year residents.

And people are slowly quitting.

So I've done three straight shifts.
I've been up for almost 36 hours.

I do feel for you about that.

But why do you always
share Pediatrics' stats with me?

It's to tell you no.

It's a no.

It's a no for me too.

Prof. Seo said
the mother can't be transferred.

Then are you going to feed the newborns
and rock them to sleep…

Are you going feed and put them to sleep?

Is it a yes if I do?

If I feed them, can we add a bassinet?

Now look here.

Yes, this is Dr. Park from Pediatrics.

Hui-yul is throwing up?
I'll be right there.

I clearly said no, okay?

If you put a bassinet in, I swear…

Yi-young, I got a spot!

Okay.

-There are no rooms.
-Right.

I know, but we need one.

-It's an emergency.
-I'm sure it is.

If I give you one,
we have to delay all the other surgeries.

Thanks to OB-GYN last night,

other departments chewed us out
for their delayed surgeries.

Please, just this once.

There's an urgent C-section.

You saw when you came here.

There are no Anesthesiology staff
or rooms left.

The surgery is impossible.

So you're saying
we absolutely can't do it?

Yes.

Then I'll tell the mother
we can't do it due to Anesthesiology

and she needs to transfer hospitals.

What?

Are you threatening me right now?

Or should I tell her to hold the baby in
until Anesthesiology can give us a room?

You are so mean. You really are.

I can't afford to worry
about anyone else right now.

And no other hospitals can take her.

Hey, Sang-hyeon.

Can you push back the OS surgery?

Just beg them again.
Theirs isn't an emergency.

Yeah. Just one hour.

Who do you think? OB-GYN.

Thank you!

Professor, I got an OR.

I'll bring her down.

Doctor, I got a call
about a pregnant patient.

-She's over there. I'll be there soon.
-Okay.

-Call Neurosurgery.
-Okay.

I'll disinfect your wound.

It might sting.

Her fever's high.

Doctor, are the CBC and CRP results in?

We didn't run the tests yet.

How about the UA?

We were going to do that,

but she couldn't produce
any urine, so not yet.

So you called me
even though you didn't run any tests?

I'm sorry, Dr. Um.

But could we run the tests

after transferring her
to the delivery room?

When we're busy,
other OB-GYN doctors would do that for us.

We have a lot of patients today.

All the beds are full. Look.

Our delivery room's the same.

The labor room's full too.

It's pure chaos.

I see.

But couldn't you take her just this once?

Could we?

I'm sorry, we're really busy too.

Please run the urinalysis
and blood tests for CBC, CRP, PCT,

electro, OPTP, BUN, and creatinine.

And if you do a sonogram too,

we'll make her transfer
swift and accurate.

Oh, right.

All right.

Give me a call
when the tests are complete.

Thank you.

He's a lot sharper now.

That was a fail.

He wasn't always like that.

-Nurse, could we run the blood work?
-Okay.

-It looks great!
-It looks great!

Let's eat.

-Let's dig in.
-Let's eat!

I had no energy to debone.
Thank God it's boneless.

A patient gave it to us for letting her
safely have her baby here.

Right!

You got to have chicken when celebrating.

But why are all of you so happy?

It's 11:30 p.m., and we're stuck here.

I really gave it to the EM team.

I destroyed them with cold, hard facts.

Hey, good job.

They think we're fools
because we hold back.

Exactly.

Being nice gets you nothing.

You'll just go mad. No!

Don't put up with it! Watch out!

Right, being patient three times
is too much.

No more.

What is this?

Why are you three
suddenly on the same page?

Are you all now,
"United we stand! Together as one!"

And things like that?

Are you?

Hey, guys.

Check your patients' operability.

And Ms. Ahn Ho-jin in MFICU
will likely deliver soon,

so watch for labor signs.

-Okay.
-Okay.

You're still here though?

Isn't your flight tomorrow morning?

I'm just about to grab my things
and leave. Bye.

Don't call me and ask, "Where are you?"

"I'm sorry. Could I ask a question?"

Especially you, Jae-il.

Don't. I won't stand for it.

Come on. You're gone for three days,
not three months.

Who do you think I am?

We can do things on our own now too.

Don't you worry.

Have fun.

A small gift will suffice.

Okay, see you next week.

-Safe travels!
-Bye!

JONGNO YULJE MEDICAL CENTER

Anytime we ask something,
they say to ask the chief resident.

It was my mistake,

but they blamed the chief for not checking
and said to bring him.

How many times can we say
Ku Do-won's not here?

What's shocking is

he hasn't even been gone for a day.

Everyone's looking for the chief resident.

But why is he looking for me?

Who?

The intern.

Leaving him alone makes me anxious,
but being next to him makes me angry.

Dr. Ku must have felt the same way.

I should go before he screws up. Bye.

OB-GYN 4TH-YEAR RESIDENT LOUNGE

This is different from that one.

It's a consent form
for epidural anesthesia.

It'll let us use medicine
so you won't feel pain.

That's what it's about.

If you look here…

I'm just removing a small cyst.
Is it that painful?

It's different for everyone.

But given your age,
it may be more painful.

So we'd like to prepare this in advance.

How long does it take to remove the cyst?

Including the prep and anesthesia,
about an hour and a half.

That's longer than I thought.

Yes, cancer surgeries
usually take a while.

But compared to other cancer surgeries,
it's pretty short.

Really?

Cancer surgery?

Yes.

Who has cancer?

Me?

If it's cancer surgery,
you're saying I have cancer?

Not a cyst but cancer?

Yes, it's…

It's cancer.

So,

you had all known
from the beginning except for me?

That I had cancer?

How can a hospital
lie to its own patient?

I asked them to.

Because I knew you'd refuse surgery.

You should have the surgery.

The imaging suggests
it's at a very early stage,

and the prognosis appears to be good.

And a laparoscopic surgery

doesn't leave much of a scar.

So recovery will be quick too.

They told my sister she'd live too.

But she ended up suffering
in the hospital and died.

Gosh, I don't want
to waste time like that.

I guess they're saying I'm old now,
and it's my time to go.

So it's okay to die just for being old?

Says who?

The law? Does it say that in books?

Let's have the surgery, Mom.

Let's make more pancakes
to let more children get surgery.

It's not for you but for the children.

You don't want that either? No?

Mom.

Your son is right.

Please have the surgery, ma'am.

Please.

It's all my fault.

I'm sorry, ma'am. Please.

I never wanted surgery.

And I'm upset you all lied to me,

so I was going to leave.

But I'll think it over for this doctor.

Because I'm grateful.

But it was really nothing--

For being honest with me.

If it weren't for you,

I would've never known about my illness
or what would happen to me

before being dragged into surgery.

What kind of fool would I have become?

Thank you for telling me.

You're the only one I can trust.

I'm an ignorant old woman,
so it must have been easy to fool me.

We apologize.

I'm sorry.

If I do go through with surgery,
will you be there?

Yes. I'll be there, ma'am.

-Okay, we'll see you for surgery.
-Yes.

But,

this surgical consent form…

Why is the font like that?

I enlarged the font for her
so it would be easier to read.

Has she read it?

My mother can't read.

Excuse me?

I think I told you before.

But you just gave it and left.

So my mother can just sign here, right?

That was a copy for your reference.

Before she signs, we'll make sure
to read it for her and explain everything.

I see. Thank you.

I eat it at home too.

-I see.
-Yes.

Fortune favors those who are lucky.

Everything just goes well for them.

Everything works out.

Their timing couldn't be more perfect.
You know?

Look.

When you're on call, you get no calls.

I had deliveries all night on my shift.

Just go home if you're going to whine.

If you're staying, take my shift.

Because of emergency surgeries,
two of Prof. Ryu's were delayed.

So I can't go!

What a pain for those who are unlucky.

You little…

THURSDAY, JULY 20

I'm going in for Ms. Jin's delivery.

Keep your eye on the ward and ER.

Yes, ma'am.

Hello, OB-GYN.

Yes, I'll be right there.

She's not our patient, but came here
with her amniotic sac ruptured.

Ma'am?

So, your water broke.

I don't speak English well

or understand Korean.

Am I okay?

What on earth is she saying?

Name? What's your name?

Margarita Kalashnikova.

-Margarita?
-Margarita.

Margarita?

Twins?

No, I only saw one.

She says it's twins.

It's her second baby.
She had a C-section for her first.

Thank you.

Professor, a patient needs you in the ER.

She's not our patient, but it's an ROM.

The ultrasound shows
the baby is in breech.

She's in active labor,
at Station 1.5, and effaced 50%.

She'll need surgery,
so I'm calling in advance.

Yeah, I'm in delivery,
but I'll be done soon.

Prep for surgery.
I'll finish up and be there soon.

Okay.

Wait.

The bleeding is severe.

Our intern is assisting this evening

to keep his promise.

It's all right.

He's kind to his patients,
and he's a good worker too.

There's nothing but praise for him.

Everyone's talking about Dr. Tak.

My gosh.

-You remembered his name, Professor?
-What?

Yes. I etched it into my heart.

Receiving praise as an intern

is not an easy thing to do.

Right? Doctor…

Sir?

Yes, of course.

Thank you.

In any case,
I hope I'll be seeing more of you

for a long time.

-Fan, please?
-Sir?

Fan.

Okay.

I don't usually sweat this much.

But it's so hot today.

Wait.

Not there.

The wound.

I applied glue on this wound.

Oh, here!

Right!

-Wait, I need a minute.
-Here.

Hold on. Were you always this hilarious?

Look at this.

OB-GYN is a lot of fun, right?

Yes, it's hilarious.

This really is a happy place, isn't it?

Yes, it is.

What's wrong with me?

Why is it so hot today?

Even though it was hot, nice work.

-Good night, sir.
-Thank you.

Dr. Tak.

Are you laughing?

You think it's funny?

Why isn't Anesthesiology picking up?

Doctor, it's OB-GYN.

A patient needs emergency surgery.

Did she fast?

Fast…

My hospital said there were no problems.

Let me check and call you back.

Could you prep the OR first…

HAM DONG-HO

I lost my phone,

so I couldn't call.

Have you seen my phone?

The translation app.

Does your stomach hurt?

Damn it.

What on earth? Why is it…

When are we moving her?

Now.

What?

Right now, the baby's foot…

The baby's foot is out right now!

-Nurse!
-Yes?

Is something wrong with the baby?

I'm not giving birth now, right?

The baby's foot is out.
We have to move her.

Contact her guardian now
and get the patient's history.

Okay.

-I'll call Anesthesiology.
-Thank you!

I need an OR now.

Just get me one now. It's OB-GYN.

-Professor, you have to get here.
-Yeah, now!

The baby's foot is out!

There are vaginal and rectal tears,
so I'm suturing now.

I think I'll be a while.

What? Then, what do I do?

No one else can come?

Get the on-call GYN professor.
Tell them I asked. Hurry.

That's Professor Ryu.
They're in emergency surgery.

What do we do?

Then you get ready.

I'll have GS switch with me and go.

Get ready, and if it's urgent,

administer general anesthesia
and open her up when she's under.

Okay.

What?

Open her up. I'll be right there.

Can you call the on-call GS doctor?

Check if Gi-sun
or Dr. Myeong can come too.

Yes, ma'am.

-Do we have an OR?
-Yes.

The caregivers and nurses helped clean up.

We pushed back an appendectomy.

Thank you, Doctor.

Any underlying conditions?

-Any medications?
-We don't know.

-Did she fast?
-I don't know.

What's her weight?

-Do you know her name?
-It's so long. I'm sorry.

Isn't that Dr. Oh from OB-GYN?

I think so.

It must be really urgent
if they're going that fast.

What is it now?

Let me know when you're ready.
The anesthesia's been prepared.

Dr. Oh, don't cry.

If you shed tears,
you have to prep all over again.

You know, right?

Yes.

If you have to pull it out--

I can't.

I understand you're scared, but…

When did the foot come out?

It was ten minutes ago.

Patient's name is Margarita Kalashnikova.

She's at 37 weeks,

and she visited our ER
early in the pregnancy,

but nothing was abnormal then.

Her husband's on his way.

He verbally gave his consent.

Thanks.

Find someone who can come.

It's okay. Your husband is coming.

I think we'll have to open her up.

I can't. I've never done it before.

It'll be dangerous
if blood doesn't flow to that leg.

We're still looking for who can come.

I'll assist for now.

If the baby goes under too,
I can wake it, so take your time.

I'll take good care of the baby, okay?

Yes. I'll watch the mother carefully too.

Calm down.

We're all here.

When Dr. Oh makes the incision,
pull the stomach down a bit.

Okay.

SURGERY IN PROGRESS

She's under.

Her vitals are good.

Make the cut deeper.

Dr. Ku!

Get it together.

Dr. Ham?

Her vitals are okay.

And--

I contacted the NICU. Don't worry.

Okay, thank you.

Pull.

Yes.

I'm at the OB-GYN on-call room.

No one's here.

Yes, let me know.

Okay, bye.

Oh, dear. It seems like no one's here.

Goodness.

What do we do, Obstetrics?

What on earth?

This isn't Taiwan.

There goes my plane ticket.

It's an OB-GYN doctor.

The baby's coming.

It's 8:46 p.m., and it's a boy.

Take the baby now.

Wrap the sensor around
and clean the baby.

Okay.

Okay, cry for us.

Come on, baby. Cry.

Heart rate's under 100. I'll start PPV.

-Oxygen, please.
-Okay.

Yi-young, are you okay?

-Professor!
-Professor!

Did you get the baby out okay?

Yes.

-Are the mother's vitals okay?
-Yes.

Nice work. Go rest.

Yes, Professor.

Are you okay?

Let's switch, Yi-young.

Okay.

The baby's out,
and uterine contractions are good.

Good job.

Heart rate?

It's under 100.

-Stimulate him more.
-Okay.

Come on, baby. Cry.

Please.

Is the baby okay?

Yes, Apgar is 8,
and the saturation is fine.

His pulse is also above 100.

We'll move him to the NICU.

Good work. Thank you.

You did great too.

Yi-young!

Nice work.

Really nice.

Thank you.

The mother's vitals are good.

Dong-ho, good work.

Thank you.

Dr. Oh's been contaminated.

Since you've been contaminated,
why don't you two leave and get some rest?

OB-GYN

Hey, Gi-dong!

What? You're where?

Nam-kyung.

Gi-dong.

Hello, Professor.

The patient you called about
is now in the ER.

The CT shows EDH
on the right temporal lobe,

and it's a lot.

Mental status is stupor.
Left motor function is grade 3.

I'll move them to the OR now.

Okay, bye.

Hello, Doctor.

OB-GYN, right?

Yes, I'm first-year OB-GYN, Pyo Nam-kyung.

I wanted to ask you something
about a patient.

Yes?

It's the one who fell down the stairs.

Ms. Jo Suk-hui?

Yes, I'd like to know her test results.

Just a moment.

The CT didn't show
any cerebral hemorrhage or skull fracture.

But it was a big fall,
so a week's rest is needed,

and she should come back
if she notices anything abnormal.

Okay. Thank you.

She's not a GYN patient, is she?

Sorry?

I don't see that on her chart.

No, she's not.

She's my boyfriend's mother.

I see.

So her son is…

Yes.

Goodness. He seemed to be pretty shocked.

Our resident did explain everything,

but you should tell him again.

I will. Thank you.

Professor.

Yes?

Mr. Ku Pil-jong's
CT angiography results came back.

It's an MCA aneurysm rupture.

Arrange an OR and prep for clipping.

Yes, sir.

The CT showed no signs
of brain damage or bleeding.

Her skull is fine too.

So she wasn't hurt too bad?

There's no problem with her brain, right?

No. As of now, everything's fine.

That's a relief.

Thanks.

Thank you so much, Nam-kyung.

It could've been worse.

You must have been so shocked.

Yeah.

Are you still mad at me?

How could I be mad?

It's over now.

I'm sorry for ghosting you.

I was afraid if I replied to your text,

I'd end up calling you,

and then we'd meet up again.

Hey, why are you being like this
over just a fight?

We broke up, Nam-kyung.

I told you.

The next time you asked to break up,
that really would be it.

No, I just said that out of anger…

You know,

being someone

you could threaten
to break up with out of anger

made me really sad.

But I endured it.

Because that's how much I liked you.

Gi-dong.

When we were fighting

and not contacting each other,
I knew you went on blind dates.

I also knew you were embarrassed
to tell your friends

that I was looking for work.

But I just pretended not to know.

Because I thought I wasn't good enough.

But this time,

when you asked to break up,

it was the first time I didn't feel sad.

I felt relieved.

Because I could hate you
instead of myself.

But even after that,

I still called you.

When my mother fell,

my mind just went blank.

And I only thought of you.

You're the only doctor I know.

I know I shouldn't have called you.

I'm sorry.

I won't call again.

Thanks for today.

Hey, Hong Gi-dong.

Call me. Just call.

No.

Call me.

If you need to come to the hospital again,

or if someone's sick or hurt,

you can call me.

Hey.

We were together for seven years.

Just because we broke up doesn't mean
you can't ask for a tiny favor.

I won't ask to get back together again.

I won't ask to be your friend either.

So call me when you need to.

You should go. Your mom must be waiting.

Okay.

I'll go on first then.

Bye.

What is it?

Hey.

Are you laughing?

This is funny to you?

I'm sorry.

That was a close call.

I've been in obstetrics forever.

But emergency calls?

I can never get used to them.

How do you think we feel, Professor?

Thanks, Do-won.

You guys saved the baby.

Is Dr. Oh okay?
Does she need medicine to calm her down?

I'll check on her.

Okay.

But gosh,

despite her attitude,

she's good.

And she's quick and fearless.

You're right.

Oh, right!

Why are you here?

You didn't oversleep
and miss your vacation too, did you?

Someone else did that too?

Me. Last year.

Still,

that breech C-section
you did last time helped, right?

That wasn't me.

It was my first time today.

Really?

Do-won, you've really grown!

I wonder who trained you this well.

Who? It wasn't me.

-No…
-Did you do it all by yourself?

I almost cried when we opened her up,

but so many were watching,
so I barely held it in.

You were calmer than I was.

Gosh.

I had no idea.

Hi, Dr. Myeong.

Just make a J-shaped incision
around the myoma.

You don't need me for that.

I have to go.

I'm coming now.

Bye, Professor.

Can you buy me a coffee?

Drink this.

You seemed very startled earlier.

Thank you.

Good work today.

Thank you for today.

I really appreciated it.

Sure.

Okay.

It's raining. Aren't you going in?

No, I'm meeting someone.

I see. Good night then.

Sorry about that.

-Take this.
-No, I'm fine.

Take it. You can just give it back later.

Thank you.

And when you do…

want to have dinner together?

THANKS TO SUNG YU-BEEN
FOR HIS SPECIAL APPEARANCE AS HONG GI-DONG

THANKS TO OUR SPECIAL GUESTS,
KIM JUN-HAN & KWAK SUN-YOUNG,

OUR ETERNAL AHN CHI-HONG & LEE IK-SUN

RESIDENT PLAYBOOK

It is tough.

These days,
I'm smiling, but not on the inside.

The one I like
much more than I appear to is…

Aren't you getting in?

We still had things to talk about.

Hey, I was curious about something.

Asking to have dinner means it's a date.

-With who?
-I think it's a guy.

He likes her.

-Welcome, ma'am.
-Thank you.

-Mom.
-What?

Please don't talk about me, okay?

Seriously, don't.

Wherever the dumplings went got a ton
of fun facts about Nam-kyung too.

-Just eat one before you go.
-Mom!

Couldn't the first-years come early?

We're lucky they show up at all.

Hey, what's wrong?
Hey, over here! Come here now!

Hey, Sa-bi!

Is it bad?

It's not malignant, right?

I…

want to go back.
